chisel in Isaiah 22

This thing shows up in Isaiah 22:16: “‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.

Isaiah 22:16

“‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock!””

What kids can learn

When you hear chisel in Isaiah, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.

Read Isaiah 22:16 again tomorrow and ask what the thing is doing in the sentence, not only what it looks like.
